Joyner is working for what looks like an arm triangle here. Myasof is trying to escape and Joyner transitions quickly into an armbar! He's slapped it on tight and Myasof is forced to tap! Nice work there by Joyner! Very nice indeed!
Ladies and gentlemen, after 2:54 of round 2, we have a winner by way of Submission (Armbar). Mathew Joyner!
